2. Figure 1
Change in surface pressure as a function of time upon injection of Aβ40 into different subphases: (○) water, (■) pH=7.4 phosphate buffer, (△) phosphate buffer with 120mM NaCl, and (×) phosphate buffer with 240mM NaCl. The time of injection is taken as t=0. The concentration of Aβ in the subphase is 250nM, and the subphase temperature is 30°C.

(A) Isotherm showing the increase in area per DPPG molecule upon Aβ40 injection at a constant surface pressure of 25mN/m. The arrow marks the time of peptide injection. (B) The corresponding percentage change in area per molecule as a function of time upon injection. Time zero corresponds to the moment of peptide injection. Temperature is 30°C and subphase is pure water.

Domain morphology of a DPPG monolayer on a water subphase at 30°C and a constant surface pressure of 25mN/m. Images were taken (A) before, (B) 15min after, (C) 45min after, and (D) 2.5h after injection of peptide. The scale bar is 100μm.

5. Figure 4
Domain morphology of a DPTAP monolayer on a water subphase at a constant surface pressure of (A) 25 and (B) 30mN/m, and (C) on PBS subphase at 30mN/m. Images were taken (1) before injection, (2) right after injection, (3) 45–60min after injection, and (4) 2–4h after injection. For all cases, temperature is 30°C, Aβ40 concentration in the subphase is 250nM, and the scale bar is 100μm. The fringes extending from the domains in B1 are due to an instability of the condensed DPTAP domain shape under the given experimental conditions, and can also be seen for DPPC in Fig. 5A1 (Diamant et al., 2001).

Domain morphology of a DPPC monolayer (A) on a PBS subphase at a constant surface pressure of 23mN/m; and (B) on a pure water subphase at 25mN/m. Images were taken (1) before and (2) 10min or 2h after injection for the PBS (A2) and water (B2) subphases, respectively. The scale bar is 100μm.

The percentage change in area per DPPC molecule as a function of subphase conditions upon injection of Aβ40 at a constant surface pressure of 25mN/m. Time zero corresponds to the moment of peptide injection. Subphase temperature is 30°C.

8. Figure 7
Dual probe fluorescence micrographs of (A and B) DPPG and (C and D) DPTAP show the different modes of interaction with Aβ40. Left panels show fluorescence from the emission of Texas-Red dye tagged to the lipid; right panels show that of fluorescein tagged to Aβ40. The DPPG film was at 30mN/m on a pure water subphase and the DPTAP film was at 30mN/m on PBS. Both experiments were performed at 30°C. The scale bar is 100μm.
